This is the year that my father and I spotted a rabbit in the back yard. He explained that it was Peter Cottontail and I, undoubtedly believed him. The funny thing is, we never saw a rabbit again in that yard.

Involved in genealogy since 1986, I still have an avid love for solving mysteries and finding out where we come from and what our ancestors' lives were like. Although I now live in Montana, my New England culture in is my bones. I am determined to leave something of this history for my family and friends. I hope that you will enjoy my posts. I am currently transcribing the World War II diary of my father, who served aboard an LST in the south Pacific.
